A LESSON WITH A MORAL; y
When VIII Our Eyes be Opened to thu
Great National Calamity? &

The year 1886 played sad havoc with
many prominent men OF our country.
Many OF them died without warning.
passing away apparently in the full flush
of life. .ea
Others were sick but a comparatively
short time. We turn to our files and are
astonished to find that most of them
died OF apoplexy, OF paralysis, of nerv-
ous prostration, OF malignant blood
humor, Of B.ight's disease, OF heart dis
ease, OF kidnty disease, OF rheumatism
or of pneumonia.
It is singular that most of our promi-
nent men die of these disorders. Any
journalist who watches the telegraph re-
ports, will be astonislled at the number
of prominent victims of these disorders
Many statements have appeared in our
paper with Others to the effect that the
diseases that carried OF, so many promi-
nent men in 1886, are really one disease,
taking different names according to the
location of the fatal effects.
When valuable horse perishcs, It
becomes the nine days talk OF the sport
ing world, and yet thousands of ordinary
horses are dying every day, their aggre-
gate loss IS enormous, and yet their
death creates no comment.
So it is with individuals. The cause
OF death OF prominent men creates COM
ment, especially when it can be shown
that one unsupported disease carries off
most of them, and vet "yast numbers
of ordinary men and women die before
their time every year from the same
cause" .r
1t is said if the blood is kept free from
uric acid, that heart disease, paralysis,
nervous prostration, pneumonia ,rheuma-
tism, and many cases of consumption,
would never be known. This uric acid,
we are told, is the waste of the system,
and it is the duty OF lie kidneys to re.
move this waste.
We are told that if the kidneys are
maintained in perfect health, the uric,
kidney, acid is kept out of the blood,
and these sudden and universal diseases
caused by uric acid will, in a large
measure disappear.
But how shall this be done? 1t is folly
to"treat effects. If there is any known
way of getting at the cause, that way
should be known 10 the public. We be-
lieve that Warmers safe cure, of which
80 much has been written, and 80 much
talked of by the public generally, is now
recognized by impartial physicians and
the public as the one specific for such
diseases. s4as..
Because public attention hos been di-
rected to this great remedy by means Of
advertising, some persons have not be-
lieved in the remedy. We cannot see
how Mr.. Warner could Immediately
benefit the public in any other way, and
his valuable specific should not be con-
demned because some nostrums have
come before the public in the same way,
any more than that all doctors should be
condemned because SO many Of them
are incompetent.
1t is astonishing what good opinions
you hear on every side, of that great
remedy, and public opinion thus based
upon an actual experience, has all the
weight and Importance of absolute truth.
At this time of the year, the uric acid
in the blood iavites pneumonia and
rheumatism, and there is not a man who
does, not dread these monsters of disease
but lie need have no fear OF Enem we al
told, if he rid the blood Of the uric acid
cause.
These words are strong, and may
sound like All advertisement, and be re-
jected as such by unthinking people, but
we believe they are the truth, and as
such should he spoken by every truth
loving newspaper.
